More May Brimfield at Shelton's Field

Brimfield is a boatload of work and fun.
We decided to elongate our efforts and stay in town
all week...that's right, we're at Brimfield Tuesday-Sunday (oh my!).
At Shelton's.
The main road down Shelton's is right across the street from J&J (our old show on Friday/Saturday).

Find us at Shelton's!
Come into Brimfield on Mass. Route 20,
see the Mahogany Ridge yellow and white striped tents, Shelton's is the 2nd driveway past those tents. (same side).
You can park at the Church in the town center as your home base (old school Brimfield).
We even ate at Francesco's in May...again with the old school Brimfield.
Enjoy the pics!

Sunday in Brooklyn:
Brooklyn Flea under the Brooklyn Bridge, NY
This Sunday July 5th 10am-6pm.

May Brimfield on Shelton's Field

The view from the top of John's cabinet: our neighbor's abstract painting, flowers from
Steph's May garden, an industrial objet.
Quelle melange!

We'll sprinkle in a few more May Brimfield pics at Shelton's soon...

We love hiding things in suitcases...

We all have to conquer our clutter. Check out flylady.net for inspirations and motivations. One way I adopt the fly lady way is finding stylish and cool storage solutions for stashing the stuff I do need to hold onto.

Enter a stack of carefully found and cleverly organized vintage suitcases. John keeps his photo collections in old suitcases. I store design magazines, bits of fabric or notions and other ingredients for stuff we want to make later, kid's artwork, my artwork, and other fun stuff. You can arrange these as end tables, coffee tables, stacked as stylish portable "armoires"...the list goes on!

This is the latest stack of leather trimmed valises from hunting in NH the last few days.
We found this adorable and wonderfully painted pink bookcase. Perfect for stashing anything.
We drove by many barns and cows and "kissed alot of frogs" but we found some cool stuff this week.

Come see our finds this Sunday, June 28, 10am-4pm, South End Open Market, 540 Harrison Ave, Boston, Ma. (Free parking! Where else can you get free parking in Boston???)

John Makes Harvest Tables

Did you know John can build pretty much anything?

Presenting one of his Harvest/Farm Tables.
He builds them sized and finished to your specifications.
Changing the legs and the finish changes the look of the table to mix with any style (painted wood, unpainted but hand rubbed wax finish, shaker legs, farmhouse legs, euro finial country legs, etc).

This table is on display at Marmalade/Curly Girl Design located at 695 Belmont St, Belmont, Ma.
John can build one for you....please email inquiries to steph@vintagesteph.com.
